Really two spectacular novellas, IMHO.
I enjoyed "Moon Over Water" and will be watching for more books from that series:

This book was, TO ME, really very enjoyable. I RARELY laugh out loud, and both of these stories REALLY had me there! Fun and worthwhile read!

There are all the usual ways, of course, but here's how Janine Hartman and Meg Remington did it.
Janine: My grandfather Hartman arranged a husband for me! Zach Thomas, the intended groom, was just as outraged as I was. But Gramps insisted we'd be a "perfect Match" First comes marriage accourding to him.
Meg: My teenage daughter, Lindsey, had the nerve to place a personal ad on my behalf-- Wanted: Perfect Partner. Worse, Steve Conlan, who answered the ad, was perfect according to her.
Does Grandfather know best? Did a teenage matchmaker get it right? You decide!

This book is actually two novels in one (First comes marraige & wanted:perfect parter) And they are both delightful heart warming hard-to-put-down romances. Both stories are great becuase they aren't your typical predictable romances, both are unique stories about relationships that are "set up" in the most unconventional ways; therefore these couples should be destined for disaster..But somehow they are able to work through the whole disaster part only to find that they are actually destined for each other.. I really liked both stories and couldnt put the book down (had to actually stay up several hours later than usual to finish it from cover to cover in one sitting)

I love Debbie Macomber and could read her books all day. If meeting and marrying were only as simple as it is in her books! You either love her style or you don't. People fall in love quite quickly and end up married quickly and we hope forever. It always seems like someone is giving a little help to get people together.
The first story is for an arranged marriaged which everyone hates in the beginning and then............ The second story is a teen age daughter who decides her divorced mother needs to date again and places an ad without mom knowing it. Does love bloom???????? Read and find out.

2 books published into 1. Not the best Debbie Macomber books I have read. A quick read, but lacks substance and detail. Great if you need a mindless few hours, but otherwise I would not recommend reading these.

This was a good book. Two separate stories both quick and enjoyable reads.

Two quite different stories. First Comes Marriage, originally published in 1991, was rather subdued. Wanted: Perfect Partner, originally published in 1995, was, well, over-the-top, at least compared to other books by this author. All in all, not great, not horrible.
Match making
a grandfather & a teenager are the real stars of these stories

Another great read from Debbie Macomber. I do have to admit, I love all of her books. Although the characters can be easily read, there are always so great twists.

Reprint of two older books. Fooled me again.
THIS IS A GOOD BOOK. MARRIED IN SEATTLE IS IN THE MIDDLE AS FAR AS GREAT TO BAD. THE PART I DIDN'T LIKE WAS HOW LONG WINDED (ON AND ON) THE TEXT WAS BEFORE GETTING MARRIED. IT IS LIKE DEBBIE WAS TRYING TO THINK OF WAYS TO KEEP FROM GETTING TO THE MAIN PART OF THE BOOK.
